In  presenting  the  fifth  edition  of  this  little  work  to 
the  public »  the  compiler  desires  to  call  attention  to  the 
fact  that  the  present  edition  is  much  more  comprehen- 
sive and  complete  than  any  that  has  preceded  it.  This 
is  mainly  attribatable  to  the  fact  that  the  compiler  has 
had  recourse  to  the  excellent  vocabularies  of  Horatio 
Hale,  published  in  Philadelphia  in  1846,  and  the  more 
recent  work  published  by  the  Smithsonian  Institute, 
under  the  supervision  of  George  Oibbs.  Esq.,  whose 
long  residence  on  this  coast,  peculiarly  adapted  him  for 
the  successful  completion  of  the  work. 

In  this  connection  it  may  not  be  uninteresting  ^o 
trace  the  origin  of  the  Chinook  Jargon,  and  enumerate 
the  various  vocabularies  that  have  been  issued  : — The 
earliest  dictionary  of  which  we  have  any  record,  in 
which  may  be  found  many  o'  the  words  at  present  em- 
bodied in  the  Chinook  Jargon,  is  Jewett's  narrative  of 
the  fate  of  the  unfortunate  ship  BobIqu,  which  was  des- 
troyed by  the  natives  of  Nootka  Sound.  This  book 
was  compiled  1^1815.  Since  that  time  nearly  twenty 
different  vocabularies  have  been  published. 

The  number  of  words  constituting  the  Jdrgon  prop- 
er has  been  estimated  at  five  hundred.  Many  words 
are  omitted  from  this  vocabulary  for  the  reason  that 
they  have  become  obsolete,  or  are  in  use  only  in  cer- 
tain localities.  Of  the  Chinook  language  proper  there 
are  but  two  hundred  words  used  m  the  Jargon,  the 
balalMse  being  made  up  from  the  Nootka,  Cbehalis, 
Klickatat,  Yakima,  Cree  and  other  Indian  languages, 
together  with  a  number  of  words  derived  from  the 
Canadian  French,  and  many  English  words  of  easy 
pronunciation. 


RULE  FOR  PRONUNCIATION. 

The  accented  letters  used  in  the  present  vocabulary 
represent  the  words  wherein  they  occur  as  having  the 
•broad  sound  of  <l  as  in  water,  thus — w5,-wd — pronounc- 
ed as  if  written  **  waw-waw."
